Now concerning the collection for the saints as I have given order to the churches of Galatia even so do ye
2
Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store as God hath prospered him that there be no gatherings when I come
3
And when I come whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem
4
And if it be meet that I go also they shall go with me
5
Now I will come unto you when I shall pass through Macedonia for I do pass through Macedonia
6
And it may be that I will abide yea and winter with you that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go
7
For I will not see you now by the way but I trust to tarry a while with you if the Lord permit
8
But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost
9
For a great door and effectual is opened unto me and there are many adversaries
10
Now if Timotheus come see that he may be with you without fear for he worketh the work of the Lord as I also do
11
Let no man therefore despise him but conduct him forth in peace that he may come unto me for I look for him with the brethren
12
As touching our brother Apollos I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren but his will was not at all to come at this time but he will come when he shall have convenient time
13
Watch ye stand fast in the faith quit you like men be strong
14
Let all your things be done with charity
15
I beseech you brethren ye know the house of Stephanas that it is the firstfruits of Achaia and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints
16
That ye submit yourselves unto such and to every one that helpeth with us and laboureth
17
I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied
18
For they have refreshed my spirit and yours therefore acknowledge ye them that are such
19
The churches of Asia salute you Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord with the church that is in their house
20
All the brethren greet you Greet ye one another with an holy kiss
21
The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand
22
If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ let him be Anathema Maranatha
23
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you
24
My love be with you all in Christ Jesus Amen
